Complete Post celebrates its 20th anniversary with the grand opening this month of its stand-alone post-production house, Complete Sound. The building is being called the largest all-tapeless, all-digital audio facility in the world.

“Audio is rapidly becoming the driving force in this business,” says co-prexy Jeff Klein, “especially when you combine the advent of DVD, HDTV and other digital formats with the increasingly stricter demands of home theater audio.”

“We are building Complete Sound as a facility that will take full advantage of these developing formats.,” Klein says.
